Disabling root login on ssh?

[Sina Bahram]

I have restarted sshd, yes. I have not tried allowusers, I'll take a look at
that, but why doesn't just uncommenting the line for root login work?

Thanks for the help, by the way.

Take care,
Sina

Hi!

  Have you restarted sshd?

    Another way is to define users who can login,  keyword is allowusers in
sshd_config.
